LD38 — A Small World

Obelisk by Orcolom 2017-05-11T20:19:16Z

This is one of the best games I saw in here! The only bad thing I can mention - the sound of steps is too loud and music loop is too short. And that's all. Everything else is amazing - game mechanic is smart and unique, I loved the feature with the sister most of all. Level design was great and style reminded me of Monumental Valley. I think you guys can make a really cool games together - because this one is wonderful. I have not much to say about it - so good the game is!

To tell the truth I know nothing about the chemistry.I watched Breaking Bad, but I think it won't help haha I spent nearly 7 minutes at the very first stage and still I can't understand what does the game want - I made some random stuff and get the level. This game can be very educational but only in case you understand the basics of chemistry. As for me - O3 is already a challenge, it took a while before I understand something. I need more visualation at the end of a stage - show me the real configuration with the names of every object at the same time! Buy the way a little information about these configurations can make this game even smarter - where do people use them or do they react funny with other stuff I really miss some sound effects. The level doesn't seem "done" because of that. Where are the sounds of a winner lol?

Run, U Fool! by zgragselus 2017-05-10T21:57:44Z

Character animation is amazing! His movements are smooth and realistic. At first I expected that the whole character would change the color, but all in all it didn't matter. I don't know how music fits the atmosphere - the world is dying, we need to hurry, everything is empty but the music still so chill. Where are the string orchestral? Where are the requiem for a world? I liked color mechanics. It makes you hurry more and because of that this game became some kind of mix of race and 3d exploration game. Good game. Really nice.

Wow! I was so surprised when I turned to that dark thing. I think that there are too many decorations at the first plan - sometimes it's unexpected to meet obstacle or bonus behind them cause you don't see the character. The music loop is too short - I tired of it too fast. I loved the art and the control are pretty smooth, it was a real joy to play your game because of that!

Planet04 by geck0 2017-05-07T02:21:47Z

Wow man why didn't you upload the game on itch.io or gamejolt or whatever? Mega was not the best option. But I wanted to play it very hard so I downloaded it even from that website. Music is great. What about controls... Hm, it could be a good feature in racing game. But when you try to turn your car in panic 5 seconds before the end of the game - it feels really frustrating to me. But still it's a good job - I felt a joy when I moved really fast. It could be a good racing game.

Fast & Faeries by andyman404 2017-05-08T09:12:33Z

That is one of the funniest games in here! I loved almost everything - low poly style, music, speed. It was so fun to rush around this fairy forest. This game isn't very innovative, but still I really enjoyed playing it and I actually wanna try all of your games now. Thanks for this one! It was really fun

SUPER Space Barrel by aamatniekss 2017-05-01T15:27:43Z

This game is simple but still really fun! The whole world really feels like "small" and the simple rules of the game make this stuff perfect to free your mind after hard job. I really loved the mechanic and the fact that the game plays really smooth. But still I think that this game is too small. There are a lot of features you can add - rebuilding the level, limited ammo, different enemies or just some random events like earthquakes. My best score was 21 btw

Bunny On A Plane by ocarson 2017-05-16T14:13:28Z

This game is the funniest I played in here haha Everything is so cute and adorable. I'm a fun of dark and depressive games and I launch it after playing Outlast, so this made my experience even more brighter. Song is great, after 5 minutes of playing I began to sing it and I think I will sing it for the whole week after that haha I got some problems with aiming and hitting objects, I don't even know how to fix this problem

But all in all this game is awesome. I really love it!

Jelly Germ by Ethereal Psyche Games 2017-05-03T12:40:05Z

Haha loved the concept! The idea with changing color is pretty original but it was hard to "feel" the character - it jumps really slow and falls down like all the game takes place on the moon. Also using a "green" ability was a real pain for me - it was to hard not to fall down because of that low jump. Level design also can be better - you've got an ability to create a really good puzzle! But still there are too much free space on the level. But still I enjoyed the game. This game is much better then many of others in here and doesn't look like it was made in 3 days, it was fun to play it. Thanks!

Wake Up ! by GoZz 2017-05-16T14:05:42Z

Art is adorable! I'm a big fun of puzzle-platformers and it was a real joy to play your game. Still there are some problems with physics - sometimes objects got stuck in the middle air. And one more thing I was confused was control. Firsltly is seems that the character is underwater, and secondly - it feels that I control the world, not the character. Maybe it's a feature, but I was confused. Music and atmosphere are great, this feature with changing world to dark and light reminded me about Giana Sisters and this is great! All in all I loved the game, thank you for making it!

Fat Cats by PonchoGuy 2017-05-10T22:18:09Z

To tell the truth this game is really unfinished even for LD. At first I died on character select screen. Really - I pressed A and red cube falled out of the screen. I launched the game second time and this was the only time when the game worked - third and fourth times I wasn't able to run the game because nothing happened when I pressed "Play" or anything else! It was very frustrating. I didn't like the art in the intro. Was it made in Paint? We are all non-professionals in here, but I think you should be more patient and draw better pictures. I'm sorry to say all of that, I didn't want to be rude or smth like this, I do respect every developer in here - you just need to polish you product better and to spend more time on it! Patience is the key! Good luck!

Murder Mitosis by _for_science 2017-05-10T21:45:47Z

Hah this game is awesome! I wish I have friend to play it with someone else. But I haven't. I doomed to play alone. But that doesn't make game less fun (instead of my life)! Special thanks for gamepad support! I think this game could be even better if you add some bonus stuff. Like item that increases speed or distance of that... I don't know, attack? All in all it's a great stuff!

Last day of the woods by Redblack Spade 2017-05-01T18:06:56Z

@sararycow many thanks! browser version could work slow on laptops, I got no time for optimization, but the problem will be fix in future - the deal is in videoadapters

Last day of the woods by Redblack Spade 2017-05-06T07:45:29Z

@fiote Yep, I tested it - there are 80 power ups. Soon I'll make a letsplay!

Last day of the woods by Redblack Spade 2017-05-10T23:37:24Z

@anim-ace Thanks! And we are not guys, I was alone ha-ha

Acquaintances by RodrigoNietiedt 2017-05-07T02:10:44Z

Haha loved the voices. But still there are some troubles - UI box with achievement info was too annoying, it covered too much space. I think you need to put it on the special fixed place. Background is weird, also I thought the same about the characters but their animations fixed the situation. I spent a while clicking on characters and sometimes I didn't understand what to do cause I didn't see an achievement box. All in all, this game is simple and fun, I loved it

Globe Trot by Richard Michael Smith 2017-05-10T22:08:52Z

I was ready to write a review ten minutes ago, but I continued playing it - it was hard to stop that spinning mess! I loved it. Shoot controls is great (played with gamepad), but there is a cheap way of shooting - it was mentioned higher. I want you to bring more chais in this game - falling asteroids, blowing buildings, volcanos - it could be so epic! But this game is still epic - spinning bullet hell. It was very fun to play it!

Dungeon In a Bottle by jhandsy 2017-05-12T00:20:09Z

Character animation is amazing! His moves are super smooth and this is great. I loved the mechanic with walls and it's great that level design uses it a lot. At first I was afraid that it's another platformer with only one aim - jump from platform to platform. Still I didn't beat the game because it's too hard for me to play from the keyboard. I used to fall down all the time and it was too frustrating. Please, add a gamepad support. It's really cool that player shouldn't input a direction to wall jump but it takes time to get used to it, but after some time it feels super comfortable.

Survival Game by Anubhav Kashyap 2017-05-16T12:51:18Z

Graphical style is good, I love low-poly and think it's great that they became popular. Control was a little bit confusing at the very begging, I spend some time to figure out how to move. I missed some story - you could write two-three sentances about why the hell player stucked in the forest with no food. Also several times I builded stuff just for accident, I didn't notice that I choose something to build. Only at third time of playing I realised how to survive. Maybe it's good, maybe not - but at first the game was very frustrating. All in all this game is good, you just made a mistake of all the beginners - the game isn't very friendly to player and it's hard to understand some moments.

Bubblenaut by TheFunAttic 2017-05-01T15:35:25Z

This game looks like Rayman on drugs haha Also plays the same - I felt dizzy in a few minutes, but if it's my problem - strange collisions with platforms is a much more serious problem. The art style and the idea are both great, everything looks weird and mysterious, I loved it! The only thing I want to mention in graphic - it's not always clear what object will kill you. At the very first time I didn't understand what killed me. I so you called this game DEMO. Will you turn it into something bigger?

Kill Boom (singleplayer + multiplayer) by Headlein 2017-05-07T02:32:14Z

Graphic is great! At the very beginning this game reminded me Crimsonlannd But targeting is sooo hard, it make this game frustrating. I really wish to shoot on the direction where my mouse courser is. I did't like shooting, sorry, I tried to. But to kill everyone with a car was really fun! Like in GTA2

FLUORIDER by anim_ace 2017-05-10T22:26:03Z

Character animation is great! Also his concept is very original - such a brutal guy with toothbrush. The lack of the third kick in combo was unexpected every single time, but still it was great to kick some monsters. Also it's sad that the hero doesn't take damage - because of that the game have cheap way to win - just stay at one place and press UP + X But still it was fun. Really reminds something from 16bit era because of controlls.
